Careful defense in four spades from Wohlin hand analysis
The International Bridge-Press Association note outlines a spade contract where South risks four spades if he wins the first diamond. If he ducks, the rubber is saved. West should lead a second diamond to force East to win and avoid a heart loss. South must play king of clubs and manage ruffs to avoid giving East control. The example ends with a question: what would you do now?
